Technical Abstract

In described examples of an isolation device, an isolation die that has a set of bond pads is mounted on a first lead frame that has a set of leads. A portion of the bond pads are coupled to respective leads. A first mold material encapsulates the isolation device and the first lead frame forming a first package. The first package is mounted on a second lead frame that has a set of leads. A portion of the first lead frame leads is coupled to respective ones of the second lead frame leads. A second mold material encapsulates the first package and the second lead frame.

1. An isolation device comprising: an isolation die having bond pads; a first lead frame having first leads, the isolation die being mounted on the first lead frame with a portion of the bond pads coupled to respective first leads; first mold material encapsulating the isolation die and the first lead frame forming a first package; a second lead frame having second leads, the first package being mounted on the second lead frame with a portion of the first leads coupled to respective second leads; and second mold material encapsulating the first package and the second lead frame, wherein the second lead frame is a pre-molded lead frame, further comprising a third mold material encapsulating the second lead frame and forming a flat surface on which the first package is mounted.

2. An isolation device comprising: an isolation die having bond pads; a first lead frame having first leads, the isolation die being mounted on the first lead frame with a portion of the bond pads coupled to respective first leads, wherein the first lead frame is plated with a first material; first mold material encapsulating the isolation die and the first lead frame forming a first package; a second lead frame having second leads, the first package being mounted on the second lead frame with a portion of the first leads coupled to respective second leads, wherein the second lead frame is plated with a second material that is different from the first material; and second mold material encapsulating the first package and the second lead frame.
